Legal translation built on real courtroom and case-file experience

"The supplier shall deliver" and "the supplier may deliver" are not the same sentence: one creates an enforceable obligation, the other a mere option. In legal translation, that one-word difference can decide who is liable for a breach. Machine translation matches words; we match obligations.

• Case files, evidence and contracts for litigation
• Attorney-client communication, remote or in-person
• Corporate documents and wills
• Terminology chosen for legal effect, not apparent equivalence
